सुधन गुरुङ फेरि गृहमन्त्री, आज ३ बजे शपथSudhan Gurung Returns as Home Minister, Oath at 3 PM Today
राष्ट्रिय स्वतन्त्र पार्टी (रास्वपा)का सांसद सुधन गुरुङ दोस्रोपटक गृहमन्त्रीको कुर्सीमा फर्कने भएका छन्। प्रधानमन्त्री वालेन्द्र शाहले उनलाई पुनः गृहमन्त्री नियुक्त गर्ने निर्णय गरेका हुन् र आज अपराह्न ३ बजे शपथग्रहण समारोह हुने जनाइएको छ।
गुरुङको यो वापसी सहज भने थिएन। केही समयअघि व्यापारिक क्षेत्रसँग अनुचित सम्बन्ध राखी अकुत सम्पत्ति आर्जन गरेको गम्भीर आरोप लागेपछि उनले गृहमन्त्री पदबाट राजीनामा दिन बाध्य भएका थिए। त्यसपछि सरकारले उनीमाथि छानबिन गर्न एक समिति गठन गरेको थियो।
उक्त समितिले आफ्नो अनुसन्धान पूरा गरेपछि गुरुङलाई क्लीनचिट दिएको छ। सोही प्रतिवेदनलाई आधार बनाउँदै प्रधानमन्त्री शाहले उनलाई फेरि उही मन्त्रालयको जिम्मेवारी दिने निर्णय गरेका हुन्।
उल्लेखनीय कुरा के छ भने गुरुङले आफ्नो पुनर्नियुक्तिबारे केही दिनअघि नै सार्वजनिक संकेत दिइसकेका थिए। उनले आफ्ना कार्यकर्तालाई आगामी दुई महिनासम्म फोटो खिचाउन नआउन भनेका थिए, जसलाई राजनीतिक वृत्तले उनको मन्त्रीपदमा फर्कने तयारीको संकेतका रूपमा बुझेको थियो।
Rastriya Swatantra Party (RSP) lawmaker Sudhan Gurung is set to reclaim the Home Ministry for a second time. Prime Minister Balendra Shah has decided to reappoint him to the position, with the swearing-in ceremony scheduled for 3 PM today.
Gurung's return to the cabinet has not been a straightforward journey. Not long ago, he was forced to step down from the Home Ministry after serious allegations surfaced accusing him of accumulating disproportionate wealth through backdoor dealings with business circles. The controversy had made his continuation in the post untenable, prompting his resignation.
Following his exit, the government formed a probe committee to investigate the allegations against him. After completing its inquiry, the committee cleared Gurung of the charges, handing him a clean chit. Prime Minister Shah has now used that report as the basis for restoring Gurung to the same ministry he was once asked to leave.
What made the reappointment particularly notable was that Gurung himself had dropped clear hints about his comeback days before the official announcement. He had publicly advised his supporters and party workers not to come for photographs for the next two months — a remark that political observers widely interpreted as a signal that he already knew he was heading back into government.
